Leave your thoughts about Burn Country.
| Film ExperienceNathaniel RogersThough [Rains is] strong in The Fixer, willing to push his character's initially endearing curiousity into aggressive and stubborn places and show real emotional confusion in a foreign land, the picture is otherwise a mixed bag. |
| New York TimesNeil GenzlingerMr. Rains, Ms. Leo and Mr. Franco are all so interesting that you wish they had more to bite into. But the film has a transfixing quality nonetheless. |
| NOW TorontoGlenn SumiSitaru effortlessly balances the demands of the thriller genre with careful characterizations and a sympathetic, never-judgmental look at poverty and crime. |
| Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeRains, who was given an acting award by the Tribeca jury, brings such a sense of purpose to the part that the movie never goes slack. |
| We Got This CoveredLauren Humphries-BrooksA well-acted, slow burning indie, The Fixer uses thriller mechanisms to examine insular, tribal cultures through the eyes of an outsider. |
| The Seattle TimesSoren AndersenThe performances are first rate, particularly Rains’ work in the lead role. |
| VarietyDennis HarveyWhile Olds and Paul Felten’s screenplay requires some significant credulity leaps, The Fixer is flavorsome, engaging and unpredictable enough that one can give those gaps a pass, at least to an extent. |
| AV ClubMike D'AngeloThe result is more of an interesting thesis than a compelling drama, but it’s anchored by Rains’ sturdy performance as a man whose open-minded curiosity about his new home disengages his natural wariness, for both better and worse. |
| Cinemalogue.comTodd JorgensonDespite some atmospheric touches, the film doesn't offer much meaningful insight into the struggle of a man trying desperately to assimilate into a new culture. |
| Los Angeles TimesRobert AbeleThere’s plenty of intelligence and atmosphere in play here.... But the prevailing tone is of pressure applied and nothing released, a genre exercise that plays as educational rather than exhilarating. |
